We use “cookies” on our website. Cookies are text files that are transferred from a server to the hard disk of your computer and remain there for the duration of the session or until deletion, depending on the type of cookie and the settings of your Internet browser, and through which we receive certain information for individualization.

By means of these functions we aim to guarantee and boost the user-friendliness and functionality of our website.
To this end, our website uses:
- Transient cookies
Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you exit the browser or log out. In particular, this refers to session cookies. These cookies save a session ID that can be used to attribute various requests from your browser to the session. This allows your system to be recognized when you return to our website.
You can prevent or switch off the use of cookies at any time using the appropriate settings in the Internet browser you are using. You can delete previously stored cookies at any time. Without cookies, however, various functions of our website may not be usable or only usable to a limited extent.

Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a tracking tool of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (Google) for our website. Google Analytics uses cookies (see “cookies” above), which are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated in this way concerning your use of our website is usually transferred to a Google server in the US and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymization on this website, your IP address will first be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states that are party to the agreement on the European Economic Area.
The full IP address is only transferred to a Google server in the US and truncated there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities, and to provide further services to the operator of the website in connection with the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address transmitted by your Internet browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other data from Google.
The data sent and linked to cookies, user IDs, or advertising IDs is automatically deleted after 14 months. When the retention period for data has elapsed, the data is automatically deleted once a month. You can find further information regarding data protection at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
